The Kunstraum am Schauplatz is located in the premises of a former horse stable in Leopoldstadt. It was founded in 2008 by Lukas Willmann, who has directed it ever since. The art space’s profile and mission is to function as a project space, commissioning exhibition concepts and formats from a rotating group of independent curators. A key focus is the presentation of mid-career artists: national and international curators and artists are invited in a balanced ratio.
